Highlights Beyond Highlights: Sept. 30 vs. Islanders

Tonight we look at a few notable moments from guys trying to make the team by doing the little things.

Early in the contest, the Flyers were under pressure when Adam Ginning tried to clear the puck up the left wing boards. The Islanders descended upon him, however, and prevented the clear. Ginning was immediately able to recover back to a defensive position on the right side of the net and ended up preventing Anthony Duclair from burying an open-net opportunity.

A little bit later on, Olle Lycksell nearly stole a puck right on the Islanders doorstep as he applied forechecking pressure following a New York line change. Lycksell stationed himself to the left of the crease at a very effective angle and nearly forced Adam Pelech into a ghastly giveaway.

Then in the third period, Emile Andrae made an impressive recovery from a giveaway inside the offensive zone. He cranked up the jets and made a backcheck that turned a potential 2-on-1 into a much less dangerous situation that Alexei Kolosov was able to snuff out.
